You are right....some guys don't understand. Woods are open compared to this....

We've got plenty of thick stuff here too. I don't care if you want to carry a bolt action with 6x scope around all day. I prefer one of my levers for woods hunting. I have turned the variable x scope on my bolt guns up as far as 6x a couple times when hunting farm country though. Once back in 1993 to kill a buck 440 yards across a field and again to kill a piebald doe 270 yards across a field at last light in 2021. I've never needed that many x's to kill a deer in the woods.
